Inverse Eigenvalue Problems

Theory, Algorithms, and Applications

Moody T. Chu and Gene H. Golub

Description

Inverse eigenvalue problems arise in a remarkable variety of applications and associated with any inverse eigenvalue problem are two fundamental questions-the theoretic issue on solvability and the practical issue on computability. Both questions are difficult and challenging. In this text, the authors discuss the fundamental questions, some known results, many applications, mathematical properties, a variety of numerical techniques as well as several open problems. This is the first book in the authoritative Numerical Mathematics and Scientific Computation series to cover numerical linear algebra, a broad area of numerical analysis. Authored by two world-renowned researchers, this book is aimed at graduates and researchers in applied mathematics, engineering and
computer science and makes an ideal graduate text.
